Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Butter

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it is fully melted and starts to foam gently.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic

    Add the minced garlic to the saucepan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Pour in Heavy Cream

    Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to thicken slightly, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Cheese

    Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until it melts and the sauce is smooth and creamy.

  5. 5

    Season the Sauce

    Stir in the salt, black pepper, and freshly grated nutmeg. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the sauce from heat and serve immediately over your favorite pasta or dishes.
